A husband with a serious back injury proved a turning point in Warrington mother Tracey Turton’s career when she “played” at reflexology with basic instructions from a book.
Tracey succeeded where specialists and pain killing injections had failed. Her magic healing hands cured Jim’s back pain overnight.  “We realised we had stumbled on something very powerful and we both trained in reflexology,” said Tracey, 43, a mother of two.
Now a Clinical Reflexologist, Tracey is encouraging people to find out some more about this complementary therapy.
Tracey started her training after the birth of her first child James in 1994 “I knew my previous job in sales and marketing wouldn’t fit in with being a mum, so I turned my passion for reflexology into a new career.”
Reflexology uses gentle pressure on precise points on the feet, ankles and hands that influence corresponding parts of the body, soothing away tension. Toxins are eliminated to encourage the body to revitalise itself.
Tracey’s career in Reflexology has gone from strength to strength and 3 years ago she decided to open her own clinic at Stretton, near Warrington.  In just three years Cheshire Natural Health has become one of the leading clinics in the North West, with over 4,000 clients.
The clinic now employs 20 specialists treating about 150 clients a week. “I love the fact that I’m helping patients and also helping other therapists achieve their dream of working as a successful therapist.”
The psychology graduate from the University of Manchester, has drawn upon the management skills acquired when working for Mr Kipling and Northern Foods.  At the height of her sales and marketing career, Tracey was responsibly for a £16 million account for Sainsbury’s.
The Turtons are old hands at running successful businesses.  Their foray into parenthood and love of the environment inspired them to launch the first cotton nappy laundry service in the North West. “We eventually had to choose between Reflexology and the nappy service – but I’m pleased to say our old business is still going strong.”
Tracey soon discovered the power of using reflexology to treat couples with fertility problems.  Her reflexology treatments have now helped almost 40 women with previous fertility problems to conceive. This success encouraged Tracey and a team of experts and therapists, to found the Natural Fertility Clinic, the only natural fertility clinic outside London
“Having treated and helped so many people with fertility problems, I think that helping someone to have a baby is the most rewarding thing I have ever done.  I myself have suffered a miscarriage, so I really can empathise with what some couples go through.”
“I’m convinced that the complete and utter relaxation generated by reflexology is beneficial for hormone balance and overall wellbeing – and that in turn helps fertility” says Tracey.
